How to track which search engine is sending the traffic

[ovtech]

Can anyone please explain how to track which search engine is sending the traffic? My inclusion in AV is expiring today and I am wondering if I should renew as I feel most of my traffic is coming from google.

Thanks

Check your 'access_log' if you are on a *nix server, that should have the http_referer of all the accesses to your site for the last X number of days / month / etc.

Or if you use a statistics package, yuo can use that to see where your search engine referrals are coming from.
